Memories of the manga are hazy but I do hope that Kubo manages to fill in some of the gaps the manga has. Either way I'm be happy with it completing it's adaptation after 18 years.

My expectations remain low unless they adjust the last...30 chapters or however many those final fights were.

The animation will at least be decent/good.

Yeah no.

The idea of something good coming from Bleach is like saying you'll get nutrition from an oscar meyer salami.

They can't even be bothered to provide the names for all the Schrifts, something that would take literally a single line of dialogue (in fact in some attempt at horrible comedy they significantly downsized Robert's already minuscule screentime instead). Do not expect anything meaningfully improved from this adaptation; the best it can do is Renji vs. Ishida, a fight that does not matter and nobody involved has anything to say about afterwards despite for all Renji knows his friend tried to murder him

Weird to call this the final arc when they teased the next one.
